92 - FUT Birthday
Packed this card untradeable, and holy shit am i happy i did!
You need a striker? Firmino.
You need a CAM? Firmino
You need a box-to-box? Firmino.
He played all those positions for me, even LM7RM and LF/RF. A bit wasted in the LM/RM positions though
This card can do it all. He has an unique body type with high dribling stats which make him great on the ball.
The positioning is amazing as a striker, he is really aggressive always trying to find space both around the box and in behind the defenders. The aggressive behavior translates into the CM/CAM positions as well, when you have the ball around your opponents box, Firmino will bully the defenders with constant movement . Should you lose the ball, he'll track back and do a great job interception the ball.
Don't get fooled by the 74 interceptions, well the AI probably won't intercept for you. But if you relay on the AI to defend for you, stop playing the game. His ball control gives him the ability to come out with the ball during tackles and interceptions.
Finishing? Oh, yeah. He can do that. Scored every single shot i expected to go in and quite a few shots that probably shouldn't end up in the back of the net.
Long shots flew inn both power-strikes and finesse-shots.
Also the 5* weak foot is really consistent on Firmino, unlike other players that seem to have more of a 4* WF than the 5* it says they have.
Left-stick dribble is fluid and feels great, he doesn't have the same responsivity as TOTYM Foden (my CAM). Still he feels great.
Skills came of great, no long sluggish touches or anything weird. He's not Neymar, but he's damn close.
Pace is great as well, he's not the most rapid player on the game even with a Hunter, but i had no problems with his pace tbh.
Passing is a treat. WF long balls over to the opposite side? No problem, hit's it perfectly every single time.
What more can i say? ?
